A method of laundering a fabric in an automatic washing machine using a water-soluble unit dose article comprising a detergent composition and a water-soluble film, the detergent composition comprising a surfactant system comprising an anionic surfactant and a nonionic surfactant in a weight ratio of from 4:1 to 1:2 and a cleaning additive selected from the group consisting of a cleaning polymer, a zwitterionic polyamine, an enzyme system, a chelant, and a mixture thereof, the method comprising the steps of: a) delivering the water-soluble unit dose article to the washing machine; b) delivering water to the washing machine to release the detergent composition and to achieve a water/detergent dilution of from about 200 to about 700 ml water /g detergent, to create a wash liquor comprising from 400 to 700 ppm of total surfactant; c) exposing the fabric to the wash liquor resulting from step b; and d) optionally rinsing the fabric; and e) optionally drying the fabric.

A packaged laundry product is provided in which the product comprises a laundry composition contained in a flexible packaging comprising post-consumer recycled (PCR) material.

A process of washing fabrics using a laundry detergent composition and a laundry treatment composition.

A liquid laundry detergent composition, wherein the liquid laundry detergent composition comprises:i) from 5% to 45% by weight of the liquid laundry detergent composition of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate;ii) a variant of a parent lipase which variant has lipase activity, has at least 60%, but less than 100% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2 and comprises the following substitutions: I202C+P253C (using SEQ ID NO: 1 for numbering); andiii) from 2% to 60% by weight of the liquid laundry detergent composition of water.

A floor cleaning product including a container that has a convex front panel and an opposite rear panel. The rear panel has a recess sized and dimensioned to receive part of the distal phalanxes of digits two through five of an adult human hand. The product further includes a flip top closure engaged with the container. The flip top closure has a plurality of small apertures through which a liquid floor cleaning composition contained in the container is dispensed.

Examples relate to a telescopic dosing cup (10) for a volumetric filling machine (34) configured to measure and/or dose a volume of powder or granular detergent material, the telescopic dosing cup (10) comprising: at least a first and second pair of telescopically arranged cylinders (12, 14) being configured to be mounted to a rotary table (36); a first chamber (24) defined by the first pair of telescopically arranged cylinders (12) configured to hold and transport a first volume (V1) of material; a second chamber (26) defined by the second pair of telescopically arranged cylinders (14) configured to hold and transport a second volume (V2) of material, wherein the first volume (V1) and the second volume (V2) are adjustable by relative sliding movement of the cylinders in each pair, and wherein the first volume (V1) is different from the second volume (V2)..

The present invention relates to a granular laundry composition comprising a surfactant and dipicolinic acid. The composition comprises a first particle, characterized in that the first particle comprises the surfactant and the dipicolinic acid. The present invention also relates to a consumer product comprising a package and the present composition. The composition is contained in one the compartment of the package. The present composition can be used for laundering fabrics, in soft and hard water. The present composition can be produced by: mixing dipicolinic acid, a surfactant and water to create a slurry; and drying the slurry to obtain a first particle.

The present invention relates to a water-soluble automatic dishwashing detergent pouch that contains the combination of dipicolinic acid and/or salt thereof together with a specific enzyme.

The present invention relates to a water-soluble automatic dishwashing detergent pouch that contains the combination of dipicolinic acid and/or salt thereof together with a specific enzyme.
